I have genuinely thought that what is needed is a liberation theology-led crusade against American evangelicalism. Maybe the Pope can lend a few of his divisions.
The current pope ratted out several liberation-theologist priests to the argentine military junta, and got them killed.
There’s a good section on him in the book Operation gladio, about both his and the vatican’s role is helping the CIA crush liberation theology and get a bunch of leftist priests assassinated.
Conservative infiltration of the Vatican has had disastrous consequences; literally worse consequences than Stalin’s infiltration into Soviet leadership

It was a Stalin joke, I don’t actually think the Pope is going to help a whole lot.
Ohhh woosh /me. That “how many divisions does the pope command” quote.
No worries, your reply was so excellent and scathing that I didn’t want to be standing in the crossfire, lol.
